She's not fat, she's pregnant....

I came home from work yesterday to discover one of the mollies had had babies. Maybe the shock of the salt water induced her. For a moment I thought the babies were really talented fish swimming together in circles, but sad to say, but most of the babies were dead, swirling around the bottom of the tank caught in the current. I'm sure if they were alive they would have been going "Wheeeee".

So, with a slightly evil "Mwa ha haaaa" laugh, I know this is not a bad thing. Why? Dead fish are the perfect thing to help the bacteria in the tank.

This morning, 2 of the little fish have survived. I now have 7 mollies in my saltwater tank.
